14 = 3x - 7

Subtract 7 from both sides.

7 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

2.333333 = x

A jar contains n nickels and d dimes. There is a total of 236 coins in the jar. The value of the coins is $15.75. How many nicke
just olya [345]

The total if all 236 coins were nickels would be $11.80, which is $3.95 short of the actual amount.

Replacing a nickel with a dime adds $0.05 to the total value, so there must have been $3.95/$0.05 = 79 such replacements.

There are 79 dimes.

There are 236 -79 = 157 nickels.

_____

Using the given variables, the problem statement gives rise to two equations. One is the based on the number of coins. The other is based on their value.

  • n + d = 236
  • .05n +.10d = 15.75

Solving the first for n, we get

... n = 236 - d

Substituting that into the second equation, we have

... .05(236 -d) +.10d = 15.75

... .05d = 15.75 -236·.05 . . . . . collect terms, subtract .05·236

... d = 3.95/.05 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by .05

... d = 79

... n = 236-79 = 157

___

The solution should look familiar, as it matches the verbal description at the beginning.

The bird population in Louisiana is decreasing at a rate of 15% per day due to the oil spill. If there are 12,000 birds today, h
tiny-mole [99]
<h3>Answer: 395 birds</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

The formula to use is

A = P*(1+r)^x

where,

P = 12000 is the initial population

r = -0.15 represents the growth rate in decimal form; which is really a decay/decrease due to r being negative

x = 21 days have passed by (3 weeks = 3*7 = 21 days)

These values lead to...

A = P*(1+r)^x

A = 12000*(1+(-0.15))^21

A = 12000*(1-0.15)^21

A = 12000*(0.85)^21

A = 12000*0.03294560142183

A = 395.34721706196

A = 395
